Abstract: |
A watching brief involved the monitoring of the erection of an aerial mast and two equipment cabins within a fenced compound, the topsoil strip for an access track and the installation of electricity services. A small number of flint flakes suggested some prehistoric activity in the vicinity, but the majority of activity dated to the Roman period. The presence of a large Roman building on the valley side above the River Arle, had been established in the 1940s. Two intercutting pits containing pottery dating to the 1st-2nd centuries AD, a circular flint-lined feature, and two possible stone walls were attributed to this period. An inhumation burial of a male dating to the second half of the 16th century was also discovered, the skeleton demonstrated developmental defects, though the causes were unknown. [Au(adp)] |
